After parking the car at the edge of a parking lot, Jia Chen took Xiao Ai's hand and walked inside.
As for why he stopped at the edge, he remembered that in the original plot... there was a species that deflated a tire.
Upon arriving outside the party hall, a beautifully dressed woman greeted the guests.
"Jia Chen!?" The other person was clearly taken aback when they saw Jia Chen, then covered their mouth and laughed, "So you really came to rely on me because your family couldn't support you anymore?"
"?" Jia Chen looked down at the other person with his wine-red eyes.
He remembered that the person in question was the main character of the party... not only the main character of the birthday party, but also the deceased.
He quickly reviewed his memories of Yotsubi Reika.
A fleeting memory surfaced in his mind...
When I was little, my parents often took me to parties because of the (Li Lehao) Group.
I also got to know Reika Yotsuki, but of course... it was a one-sided acquaintance.
Then it was discovered that there was nothing worth remembering.
Ai Haibara, dressed in a black tuxedo, looked at the other person calmly.
Jia Chen nodded in response to the greeting...
Reika Yoshii: "... "
When Yoshii Reika saw Jia Chen's "Who are you?" expression, she was genuinely a little annoyed, which made her, who had been pampered since childhood, feel somewhat uncomfortable.
I feel angry, but I need to stay rational, since there are quite a few guests around, and they are all from the upper class.
After signing her name, Jia Chen entered the party hall.
Because Ai is a child, she doesn't need to sign anything and can directly enter the level with Jia Chen.
However, Ai was somewhat stunned when she saw the words written by Jia Chen.
Why is my boyfriend's handwriting so bad? It's crooked and messy, like scribbles.
Chapter 127 Conan Covers His Face and Flees
The villa is very spacious, with a magnificent chandelier hanging from the ceiling.
In the center of the hall was a huge round dining table, covered with silverware and cutlery, and filled with a variety of dishes for guests to choose from.
The waiters were dressed in formal attire, carrying trays with various drinks on them.
Jia Chen took two glasses of juice from above and used his Observation Haki to sense his surroundings.
A group of young people were talking about why Yotsubi Reika had spoken to them earlier... but most of them were Tian fans...
On the other side, the older generation was chatting, and Hu Batian, the assassination target, was among them.
Sensing the emotions of the people he was talking to, Jia Chen activated his Observation Haki, adding negative emotions to the conversation.
"Gachen...did you just meet that woman?" Ai Haibara tugged at Gachen's sleeve, her icy blue eyes fixed on him.
"I guess you could say we know each other." Jia Chen handed the juice to Ai Haibara.
"So you could say we know each other?" Ai stared at Jia Chen with suspicion... Images of Jia Chen's past life kept flashing through her mind, and then, a hint of grievance appeared in her beautiful ice-blue eyes, "So, what about your past..."
"What are you imagining now?" Jia Chen reached out and ruffled Xiao Ai's hair, placing the juice in her hand. "Didn't I tell you about my past life before?"

"As for that person from just now, I still have 523 points of memory of him in my mind." Jia Chen recalled the original owner's memories.
"She is Shijing Lihua. I met her when my parents took me to a party when I was a child."
"Back then, I was rather cold, and the children around me seemed to be afraid of me."
"However, Yotsuki Reika has special feelings for me and wants to take me under her wing, but I haven't paid much attention to her."
"After a month of unremitting efforts..."
"What's wrong?" Ai Haibara unconsciously gripped the hem of Gatsu's clothes tightly.
"I finally uttered my first words," Jia Chen recalled. "I told her to 'get lost.'"
Ai Haibara was stunned, her icy blue eyes staring blankly at Gatsuki, a result she hadn't expected.
"So... I don't remember how I met her back then," Jia Chen said calmly. "But now, as you know, my parents passed away for some reason..."
"When she mentioned her family's financial situation, she was probably subtly mocking me." Jia Chen's expression was indifferent, but her pale red eyes revealed her thoughts of reminiscence.
"I... Jia Chen, I will always be with you." Ai Haibara saw him reminiscing with a slightly melancholy expression, as if he was thinking of something unpleasant.
It's like a lost and helpless person standing still, surrounded by a pitch-black loneliness as vast as the ocean tide.
Xiao Ai stood on tiptoe and stretched out her fair little hand to ruffle Jia Chen's hair.
"..." Jia Chen was initially a little confused about Xiao Ai's actions, but after seeing the tenderness in her eyes...
I understand that the young girl with tea probably thinks I'm heartbroken.
"Let's go have dinner." Jia Chen stood up and took Xiao Ai's hand. "I'm a little hungry..."
On the other side, Kogoro Mouri was sitting in his seat eating and drinking heartily, completely oblivious to his image.
Even though he's rich now, he still can't shake his habit of trying to get something for nothing.
"Dad, stop eating! It looks awful," Ran Mouri said, somewhat embarrassed. "Everyone else hasn't even touched their food yet."
In this kind of situation, one should behave with proper etiquette.
Moreover, Kogoro Mouri was invited as a famous detective. 7
Conan, hands behind his head, watched Kogoro Mouri feast with half-moon eyes.
Although he rarely attends such gatherings, he still needs to be mindful of his image. 8
This uncle is really something...
“If you’re hungry, you have to eat,” Kogoro Mouri said, his cheeks puffing out. “You can’t usually get this kind of food outside, and you guys aren’t eating? I didn’t eat lunch, I’ve been waiting for this meal.”
“Dad! This is a public place,” Ran Mouri urged again.
“It’s not just me, that kid Jia Chen is eating too,” Kogoro Mouri said.
After speaking, he glanced warily at Jia Chen on the other side.
Jia Chen!?
Conan was taken aback for a moment, then his gaze shifted to Jia Chen.
Because Jia Chen is quite tall, (ccch) he stood on tiptoe and scanned the entire area when he arrived, but he couldn't find Jia Chen anywhere.
Conan's mood instantly soured upon seeing Jia Chen.
The reason is simple: whenever I run into this guy, something bad always happens.
Either he's been wronged, or there's a case involved...
"Dad, Brother Jiachen." Ran Mouri followed Kogoro Mouri's gaze and broke out in a cold sweat.
The way Dad and Jia Chen eat are worlds apart.
On one hand, they were devouring the food, wishing they could stuff it all into their mouths...
On the one hand, she was elegant and ate slowly and deliberately, just like an ancient nobleman using the highest level of etiquette.
"Well then, thank you all for coming to my daughter's birthday party," said Yotsubi Miyahira, the CEO of Yotsubi Group, on the stage. "Now I would like to introduce a special guest to everyone."
The audience below all looked up...
"This mysterious guest is none other than the famous detective, the Sleeping Kogoro Mouri!!!" said Yotsumiya Hei.
Meanwhile, Kogoro Mouri was still eating and drinking heartily, completely oblivious to the situation.
One second...
Two seconds....
Three seconds...
The room fell silent.
Fiber group 59_9㈢㈦0:3^2^4
"Mr. Mori!!!" Sensing the somewhat awkward atmosphere around him, Yotsumiya Hei called out once again.
If they still don't agree, things will get awkward going...
It wasn't just Kogoro Mouri who lost face, but also the Yotsubi Group.
Now that they are at the pinnacle of wealth, most of them care about their reputation.
"Huh?!" Kogoro Mouri looked up in confusion, with a piece of foie gras still stuffed in his mouth.
The surrounding crowd turned to look after hearing the commotion, and their pupils constricted in shock upon seeing what they witnessed.
Who would have thought that the famous Kogoro Mouri would behave so disgracefully?!
Jia Chen also quietly watched Kogoro Mouri from the side.
Everyone in the story thinks that Kogoro Mouri is actually just a confused old man.
But he doesn't think so.
